Homeworld 2 Complex truly is a great, complete, memorable and incredibly fun game. This is emphasized and demonstrated as Complex sits up there right alongside more publicly-known legends such as DotA, Counter-Strike and Team Fortress as well as mods that are said to have completely changed and improved game design philosophies like Natural Selection or Garry's Mod.
Among hundreds of other excellent mods that could have been pointed out and put there, Complex was chosen. Complex, a somewhat niche mod about strategic and tactical complexity and giving players so many options that the average gamer's head would implode on their first time playing it, was chosen to be put on display despite it all. It sits on the throne of the best space strategy mod of all time, despite space RTS being far from a mainstream genre and despite Complex's very design philosophy being the complete and radical opposite of most industry standards.
There is obviously a reason for that. I personally think that the reason is that it's simply that good, that well-made, that Complex does deserve this kind of praise and recognition, and deserves much, much more attention than it's actually getting right now.
